The X-men run missions and work together with the NYPD, striving to maintain a peaceful balance between humans and mutants. When it comes to a fight, they won't back down from protecting those who need their help.
Haven presents itself as a humanitarian organization for activists, leaders, and high society, yet mutants are the secret leaders working to protect and serve their kind. Behind the scenes they bring their goals into reality.
From the time when mutants became known to the world, SUPER was founded as a black-ops division of the CIA in an attempt to classify, observe, and learn more about this new and rising threat.
The Syndicate works to help bring mutantkind to the forefront of the world. They work from the shadows, a beacon of hope for mutants, but a bane to mankind. With their guiding hand, humanity will finally find extinction.
Since the existence of mutants was first revealed in the nineties, the world has become a changed place. Whether they're genetic misfits or the next stage in humanity's evolution, there's no denying their growing numbers, especially in hubs like New York City. The NYPD has a division devoted to mutant related crimes. Super-powered vigilantes help to maintain the peace. Those who style themselves as Homo Superior work to tear society apart for rebuilding in their own image.

HI I'm back, and Adder is new here. So he needs threads, lots of threads. Threads with all of the people. A L L O F T H E M.
Specifically I'm looking for threads that will encourage Adder to get off the streets (he really isn't doing that well there, after all, admirable as it is that he's done it so long) in one form or another. Try and get him to trust you? Go for it. Harass him and freak him out? Sweet. Random other things I haven't thought of at this particular morning moment? LET'S PLOT.
so, after Aura fends off Mirror, will she go looking for Adder again, or should they meet a second time by chance? He's not too likely to stick around to see what happens with Mirror, but that is also possible.
I hope I'm not too late to jump in and say that I'm interested in a thread. Darkshift might not have the most moral of skills to encourage getting off the streets, but she's been there herself and knows enough to understand that it's not pretty. If the option is to live on the streets or to steal from those more fortunate, sometimes you just have to do what's necessary.
Excellent! I'd say probably a separate thread from yours with Aura and Mirror. Did you have any specific ideas? Darkshift can half-way mimic at least some the physical aspects of Adder's transformation, all be it in black instead of white. Perhaps that might be something to play with?
Casual meeting sounds good. Does Adder tend to be more nocturnal or diurnal? Darkshift is much more likely to be found around the city at night and tends to skulk around some of the shadier areas of the city. Perhaps some sort of late night dark alley meetup?
Adder is highly mobile and can be active at any time of day; he has decent night sight and sometimes food is more available at night than during the day. Shady areas are very much places he passes through, so it sounds like a plan to me!
Although I should wait for at least Aggressive Scrounging to conclude so I know where he's heading, otherwise all of my threads will be in a haze of fuzzy time XD
Claire's new on the board (and very new to being a mutant). If she hasn't gotten the hang of controlling her constructs, she just might be seen trying to chase a favorite one down before it goes Poof because it got too far from her...
She's not scary. Unless she's working with chemicals. Claire: I heard that! Writer: Hush. You might scare him away.
